Okay, this is the new boat.
Try and get it all in there.
The office is a messy at the moment.
I'm trying to get everything sorted out for new flooring next week.
This is that Cardeen flooring that's just terrible crap.
Almost uh tweaked my back out here, moving a chair because the chair sunk into it.
So you can't slide anything.
Anyway, this is the VR1 from Hookie.
It's an OC1, an ocean canoe single person.
Vacuum molded S glass, Kevlar, and Carbon.
And I should be able to take it out in a couple of days.
I've got to charge up my GoPros.
I've got to wait for the wetsuits to show up because it's damn fucking cold in this water.
Then I'm gonna go and get used to it paddling up in a um uh small creek over here.
Uh I had to come on out and do this uh early in the morning, guys, before my dog walk, just so I could get it done.
There's all kinds of activity here today.
It's gonna be a um nice day.
I've got to get in and sand the seat so it'll fit my butt because I'm not sanding my butt to fit the seat.
So anyway, and then set it up and put all the GoPros on and so on.
Uh basically, you sit in it.
There's controls, I've got a couple of dry wells in here so I can store camera gear and that kind of stuff.
And um uh that's on like more calm paddling.
And we're gonna go on out, I'll be bringing you adventures as I go pedal along in all of the coastal creeks here and go do um steelhead fishing, that kind of thing, and exploring, which I'll get into.
I'm releasing a new website in a couple of days, and it will have some content on it as to what uh what our plans are for the future here now that I'm starting to get some things straightened out after the cancer.
Anyway, so uh there it is.
It's from uh Hookie out of California.
Talk to Jude.
Uh amazingly amazing shipping.
I mean, this here is just part of the pile of the um of the packing material.
There's the rest of it.
Uh, but amazing job, tremendous delivery guy.
It's shout out to Steve, he really knows what he's doing.
Uh huge damn trailer, and getting this here uh way out in the Thulees where I am was some effort.
Anyway, so I'm just gonna throw this up on YouTube and uh let everybody see the new boat and get on with the rest of my day.
I'll make a more uh polished formal version of it after I've got it all rigged up.
Uh thanks for watching, guys.
